Colleges can learn from National Star in Mamhilad, says SNAP Cymru

A disability education charity has said the opening of a specialist college for young disabled people with complex needs could provide a boost for resources at centres across Wales.

The National Star College, which operates in south west England, has opened its first Welsh college in Mamhilad, near Pontypool.

SNAP Cymru says sharing its expertise could improve provision elsewhere.

Lindsay Brewis from the charity said: "We need every single further education college to learn from centres of excellence such as National Star College and take up some of their methods and techniques."
